High protein hot chocolate
 

It's getting to be that time of year, and one of the delights of the colder season is low carb hot chocolate.

Had a celebratory cup the other day, and it was the usual: cocoa sludge at the bottom. I looked up ways to handle this. It turned into the usual:



Now I understand if you are one of the people whose ingredients appear in little dishes around the stove, and you already have a chocolate bar shaver and like waiting around watching the candy thermometer, just to have a cup of hot chocolate.

That's not how I roll.

So, I put water on to boil, put a scoop of chocolate whey protein in a big cup with a pinch of cinnamon, put the hot water in and stirred it up. Added heavy cream and a few ice cubes and I have FILLING hot chocolate, in a few minutes, without standing around being a servant to the food.

I want food to serve ME :lol:

Sounds yummy.

What time shall I arrive? I'll bring some wine. :D

I'll put the Solstice lights up! What kind of Christmas music do you like?

It's a little early for Christmas music. As a musician, we usually don't play those until after Thanksgiving, but I'm certainly not opposed.

It's hard to say what kind I like, so surprise me. Music is music and I like most anything with a good melody and more than one chord. Is it OK if I bring my wife?

Absolutely!

It's not holidays here, either, but I like to look ahead :)
